    Ive had mine since launch i did have it bluescreen one but never happened again and now updated the ssd to a 4th one. Its chamged my gaming habits.
    Being a dad to a 6 year old my gaming time has got less and less over the last few years and i moved to a 1080 Ryzan 5 pc not long after my little one was born and sold my consoles because i just did not game often.
    Since i got my ally im playing games with my son like Roblox and Minecraft but thwn finding myself playing more games for up to 60 mins most nights.
    I also sold my pc and got myself a 3080 card for it and now get to play all games in 4k on my tv or 1080/720 on the go.
    Looking at the go, claw and steamdeck im still glad i got the Ally.

    I bought Ally instead of the Steam Deck because I was worried that the SD wouldn't be able to run all my games nicely. Additionally, I'd heard that the SD can be pretty loud when it's under the load. The battery life wasn't a concern for me because I usually play at home and can easily plug it in when needed. Thanks for the video, it's great to see other people who also love this device!

    I love my Ally. I’ve sold my desktop pc and got myself the crazy 4090 XG Mobile Dock. While it’s near unusable on battery, when plugged in or docked, it’s been a game changer for me. The 1080p, VRR IPS screen is also the *best* of the entire class, in my opinion. Better than the Steam Deck OLED, which I also own.

    I had a pretty rocky experience with my first 2 allys neither of which were sd card related. After fussing with best buy via a sloppy repair process and getting an r 8 model exchange that unit has been great. Constant updates and it's better than when I got it. I will say that I love having an ally. It's a great machine and allows me to play call of duty natively at work. I am however glad I didn't sell anything i.e. my shield TV or Xbox and replacing that with my ally. I'm just not convinced it's gonna last forever but maybe I just had some bad luck.

    I've had my rog from day 1, I love it I can compare it to my steam deck but no need I love my deck too, the ally for me is my travel pc handheld to play warzone,red dead and cyberpunk. The updates since day one just keep coming, I have a portable power brick from movespeed that's 130w I bought on sale from Amazon for $40, if my rog is at 100% and I plug in the portable charger to play 30w Manual mode it will add an hour of gameplay. So basically I can get 2hrs of gameplay connected to the power brick playing warzone at 30w manual with over 80fps+ on ultra.

    Honest review here.
    At first when I bought my Ally I did not expect much from a handheld and I knew the battery was not as good as the legion go. I enjoyed using it for 3 months but then bio updates came in and amd updates with windows and it started to mess up my games, some of them don’t even start or settings don’t even change. I personally think that ally right now for me it’s having driver issues and i tried everything. I’d say you get the legion go, it’s a little better in performance than ally, my brother has the go and I can tell. Maybe my ally is the only device that has bugs and I wish I would’ve gone for the go or at least a different ally that does not have problems. Other then than the ally feels good to hold and the screen is decent.

    Do you find that you hit the edge of the case sometimes when tapping the B button? I got the stock insignia one from BestBuy, but find it covers too much of the front and makes it look cheap.
    I’ve got a STACK of boxes for my Ally now lol
    -ROG Ally box
    -ROG HDMI Adapter box
    -ROG Travel Case box
    -Insignia Ally Grip Cover box
    -Spiegen Screen Protector box (came w/ 2)
    -Controller box
    -Keyboard box
    -Mouse box
    They stack almost as high as my X85K Sony 43” 4K 120hz HDR10 HDTV 😂
    I returned the Go twice. Loved the screen but the ergos, weight, heat, too many buttons and those thick long cheap triggers. Gave it a 2nd go as I felt that I rushed its first time use. Same issues still with next & returned it.
    Getting a Legion Go 2 whenever that drops if they revise the issues. Excited for it!
    Love my Ally, it replaces my XBSX, PS5, Gaming PC build and my gaming laptop. Sold all that, got the Ally and all its accessories. Anyone from like 5 to 50 is like yo what is that?! That’s cool!
    Bought a 75W car adapter I use in the work truck, charge the phone too at the same time. Use 5g in CoD matches and still get top of the leaderboards. Loving this little beast!!!
    I can’t hear it and it doesn’t get hot! 👌
    FYI, just don’t change your power mode while in cod, that’s what triggers it, if it does. It may have been patched. I just never do, so I haven’t had any issues and use my main account.

    I agree! I have both the LeGo and Ally! I use the Ally for gaming until the battery runs out. Then I switch to the LeGo. The LeGo is best for UA-cam, Movies, social media etc..... The LeGo's speakers are trash, no matter what you do.

      @mystertom if u talking "in general" cause they get reviews copies of device/game to "review" which normally they want it review by certain period.
      Also let's think back when xbox series x / ps5 or even steam deck was announced. How many video u search for like GTA 6. Yet how many u search for PS2, GTA 2 etc. ?

    Pretty much not competing against MSI, the performance is bad for MSI Claw but yeah, it just released and it need alot of updates like Ally did so first impression is looking not great, but dude, do something about the gameplay footage man, all you do is show CoD and nothing else. I won't subcribe since you only show CoD.

  • @KaayyC
    @KaayyC 10 місяців тому

    My opinion but the ROG Ally isn’t that great
    Triggers are prone to full pull issues
    Joysticks are win 3 modules and get drift easy plus they feel super loose making racing games hard to play
    Bumpers are prone to abnormal clicking issues making one sound louder than the other
    SD Card slot is prone to failure and in some cases taking your SD Card with it
    It has some benefits like the size and weight plus the software is more mature but my legion go can do everything and more plus controllers are easier to replace and it can double as a tablet/ereader if you aren’t just into gaming and works great with videos and the kickstand
    The legion go is best all round and has multiple uses but if you want only portability with good performance the ally is good but I can’t go back after using the go unless I needed something smaller or VRR
